Inspired By Example is a podcast about leadership — purpose, passion and pivotal moments that change a life of meaning.

In this episode, Will and Rich's guest is Zebulon Scoville, Lead Flight Director of NASA's Mission Control.

Zeb shares the lessons from his remarkable career at NASA, which includes leading the International Space Station from the console at Mission Control, creating "return to flight" safety protocols following the Columbia shuttle disaster and collaborating with commercial partners like SpaceX to accelerate the possibilities of future space exploration. Zeb is now Lead Flight Director for the Artemis mission, NASA's first piloted mission to the moon in more than 50 years. It's a fascinating conversation on leadership from within one of the most innovative organizations in humankind.
